Hair loss is a common concern affecting millions worldwide, impacting not just the physical appearance but also the self-esteem of individuals. Amidst various hair restoration techniques, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment has emerged as a groundbreaking solution for combating hair loss. By harnessing the body’s natural healing abilities, PRP treatment offers a natural and effective method for hair regeneration, making it a preferred option in the realm of hair restoration.

Every Strand Tells a Story. With PRP Therapy, we don’t just treat hair loss;  we restore your story, one follicle at a time. 

What is PRP Hair Treatment? 

PRP Hair Treatment is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive treatment that utilizes the regenerative properties of your own blood to promote hair growth. Known for its natural methodology, PRP treatment taps into the body’s own healing capabilities, avoiding the need for synthetic chemicals or medications. 

In PRP hair treatment, a patient’s blood is processed to enrich platelets, which are cells that aid in healing and contain growth factors that are vital for tissue regeneration and repair. This platelet enriched plasma is then injected into the scalp where it stimulates hair follicles, promoting new hair growth and increasing the thickness of existing hair.

How does PRP (platelet-rich plasma) hair treatment work? 

PRP treatment operates through a sophisticated biological mechanism that capitalizes on the regenerative potential of platelets found in the patient’s own blood. When the platelets are activated during the PRP process, they release a diverse array of growth factors and cytokines from their alpha granules. These bioactive substances include transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), platelet-derived endothelial growth factor (PDGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF).

These growth factors play crucial roles in stimulating hair growth through multiple mechanisms. Firstly, they promote cell proliferation, which enhances the activity of hair follicle stem cells and supports the production of new hair shafts. Secondly, they aid in cell differentiation, ensuring that newly formed cells mature into specialized hair follicle cells capable of producing strong and healthy hair. Additionally, the growth factors promote angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, which improves blood flow to the scalp and provides essential nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicles.

Moreover, PRP treatment revitalizes dormant hair follicles, essentially waking them up from a resting phase and initiating new growth cycles. By extending the growth phase of the hair cycle (anagen phase) and reducing the shedding phase (telogen phase), PRP treatment helps maintain a fuller and denser hair appearance over time.

Benefits of PRP Hair Treatment 

PRP therapy stands out with its multifaceted benefits that cater to individuals seeking effective solutions for hair loss:

  • Natural Healing Process: PRP uses the body’s own cells, which significantly reduces the risk of allergic reactions and enhances the natural hair growth process. 
  • Improved Hair Density and Thickness: It promotes hair shaft thickening and increases density, making it highly effective for conditions like androgenic alopecia. 
  • Enhanced Hair Quality: It improves the texture and overall quality of hair, leading to a healthier, more vibrant appearance. 
  • Minimal Downtime: As a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure, PRP allows quick recovery and return to daily activities. 
  • Proven Efficacy: PRP hair treatment is supported by clinical studies and numerous patient reports, showing significant improvement in hair regrowth, count, and density within months of treatment. 
  • Supports Hair Transplantation: Intra-operative injectable PRP therapy aids in hair transplantation by promoting faster hair density, reducing the catagen loss of transplanted hair, and facilitating early recovery of the skin.
  • Improves Blood Flow: The process of injecting PRP into the scalp can improve blood flow to the area. This increased blood flow delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to hair follicles, promoting healthier hair growth.
  • Revitalizes Dormant Hair Follicles: PRP can stimulate hair follicles that have become inactive, essentially waking them up and initiating new growth cycles. This can lead to thicker hair and a fuller appearance.

Process of PRP Hair Treatment  

At Evenly Clinic, ensuring patient safety remains our top priority. The PRP process is performed in a sterile environment using single-use equipment to uphold the highest standards of hygiene.  

Prior to the procedure, our specialists conduct a comprehensive scalp assessment to personalize the treatment according to your unique needs. During the consultation, we carefully examine your pattern of hair loss and review your medical history to provide tailored solutions. 

The treatment process is straightforward and typically spans about an hour, making it convenient for individuals with busy schedules.  

Step 1: Initially, a small amount of blood (20-60 ml) is gently drawn from your arm. This step is quick and minimally invasive, ensuring your comfort throughout the process. 

 Step 2: The collected blood is then processed using advanced centrifuge technology. This centrifugal spinning concentrates the platelets, extracting vital components essential for hair restoration. 

Step 3: After thorough cleaning and numbing of the scalp to maintain sterile conditions, the Platelet Rich Plasma solution is delicately administered into targeted areas using precise techniques. 

Indications of PRP Hair treatment 

PRP hair treatment is primarily utilized for addressing hair loss issues such as Androgenic Alopecia or Pattern Baldness, common in both men and women. This treatment is beneficial not only for various forms of alopecia (diffuse, focal, telogen, androgenic) but also for improving hair density in cases of hair thinning.  

Additionally, it aids in treating scalp conditions like dandruff, seborrhoea, and oily scalp, and is effective in restoring hair health post-damage from dyeing, chemotherapy, or keratin treatments. PRP is also increasingly used as a complementary treatment for overall hair health and rejuvenation 

Average Cost of PRP Hair Treatment 

The cost of PRP Hair Treatment varies based on location, clinic, dermatologist expertise, number of sessions needed and treatment specifics.  On average, patients can expect to spend between ₹ 6,000 to ₹ 15,000 per session. At Evenly Clinic, we provide transparent pricing and tailored treatment plans to fit various budgets.
